  • Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat has added a new character with Awakened Prince Dante
  • The mobile spin-off also celebrates over a year on storefronts worldwide
  • Awakened Prince is all about giving in to the dark side with new, powerful abilities

Approximately one year post its launch, Devil May Cry: Peak of Combat continues to thrive. Following a wave of foreign releases by Tencent following the major Chinese gaming license freeze, it has sparked some debate among fans, yet remains a solid 3D fighting game. Now, an exciting new character, Awakened Prince Dante, is being introduced.

As I step into the game, my character, Dante, stands out with an eerie demonic flair. He’s not just about swinging his sword; he’s equally adept at delivering powerful punches. It seems like I’m embracing the dark side, as Dante transforms with the Sin Devil Trigger and showcases a host of unique abilities. One such ability is the Life Waste, which isn’t just about dealing damage to my enemies, but also causing them to bleed out even more health over time.

This latest update coincides with the fact that Peak of Combat has been available for over a year in stores globally, and with the Devil May Cry anime on Netflix gaining popularity (though it’s also met with some disagreement), it’s not unreasonable to think that Peak of Combat might be experiencing some positive side effects. Notably, players in Asia are currently enjoying a 50% discount on summons as part of their own anniversary celebration event.


Bang, bang, bang

It’s clear that Peak of Combat has its share of issues, primarily because it adheres tightly to Tencent’s business strategy. However, Awakened Prince demonstrates that they excel in creating an array of fresh characters that delve deeply into the rich tapestry of DMC lore.

Undoubtedly, this character comes with extra perks such as enhanced shield-breaking abilities, making them less suitable for newcomers. However, if you’re seeking a character that will test your skill in mastering long combos, the Awakened Prince could prove to be quite engaging.
